Rocafosca is an outstanding red wine from the Qualified Designation of Origin (D.O.Q.) Priorat, created by Bodega Costers del Priorat. This wine is composed of Carignan and Garnacha Tinta grape varieties that blend to offer a remarkable balance between fruit and minerality. It originates from historic estates such as Mas Alsera in Torroja and Sant Martí in Bellmunt, which represent the rugged terroir of Priorat. The vinification of Rocafosca is artisanal, involving manual grape selection and the use of indigenous yeasts, with separate treatment of each variety to maximize its potential. The aging process takes place over 12 months in Slavonian oak barrels and amphoras, adding complexity and character to the wine. Tasting note: visually, it presents a deep ruby red color with violet edges and a medium-high layer. On the nose, aromas of ripe red and black fruits, Mediterranean herbs, graphite, and pronounced minerality are perceived. On the palate, Rocafosca is silky and structured, with vibrant acidity and polished tannins, culminating in a long and persistent finish. This wine is recommended to be served at a temperature of 15-16°C and decanted for 45 to 60 minutes beforehand to allow for oxidation and release of its aromatic complexity. It pairs excellently with grilled red meats, roasted lamb, game stews, mountain rice dishes, and cured sheep cheese.
